AB - This study statistically verified the factors influencing online health information sharing among 232 older adults aged 65 and above. The research findings are as follows. First, health-related factors, namely subjective health status and health interest, were found to have no significant effect on seniors’ online health information sharing. Second, all psychological factors - self-efficacy (β=.155,p<.05), trust in online information sources (β=.243,p<.01), and social support (β=.166,p<.05) - were confirmed to have a significant positive (+) influence. Third, both technical factors - digital competency (β=.244,p<.01) and literacy education (β=.283,p<.01) - were analyzed to have a positive (+) influence. The results of this study are expected to contribute to promoting the health of the senior generation and, furthermore, to bridging the digital health information gap through the revitalization of online health information sharing.
